Q1:  Describe what you see in the picture.
A1:  In this picture I see the World Trade center , probably from someone on the sidewalk or street's point of view.

 Q2:  If you stood in the same location today and took the same picture, what would your picture show?
A2:  If i took that picture in the same position I would probably have a picture of the sky and/or cranes and dump trucks cleaning up the last of the debris on the WTC ground (Ground 0).

Q3:  How could the United States have prevented this from happening?
A3:  The United States could have prevented this from happening by not electing George Bush as president because the terrorists only attacked because when his father was president they tried attacking but it didn't work. They felt that since a Bush was back this was there chance to get back.

 Q4:  How has traveling in the United States changed since September 11th?
A4:  Traveling has changed a lot mostly in the security section. Now the simplest metal spoon will be thrown away.  The security is much higher and better now.
